No, a triangle cannot have 2 right angles. So, FALSE.
I assume you mean one that is not rational, such as √2. In such a case, you make a reasonable estimate of it's position, and then label the point that you plot.
For example, you know that √2 is greater than 1 and less than 2, so put the point at about 1½ (actual value is about 1.4142).
For √3, you know the answer is still less than 4, but greater than √2. If both of those points are required to be plotted just make sure you put it in proper relation, otherwise about 1¾ is plenty good (actual value is about 1.7321).
If you are going to get into larger numbers, it's not a bad idea to just learn a few roots. Certainly 2, 3, and 5 (2.2361) and 10 (3.1623) shouldn't be too hard.
Then for a number like 20, which you can quickly workout is √4•√5 or 2√5, you could easily guess about 4½ (4.4721).
They're usually not really interested in your graphing skills on this sort of exercise. They just want you to demonstrate that you have a grasp of the magnitude of irrational numbers.
Answer:
For radio = $40.43
Television = $444.73
Player = $364.73
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the each device cost is shown below:
let us assume the following things
radio be x
television x + 10x
player x + 10x - $80
Now the equation is
x + x + 10x + x + 10x - $80 = $850
3x + 20x - $80 = $850
23x = $930
x = $40.43
For radio = $40.43
Television = $40.43 + 10(40.43)
= $40.43 + $404.3
= $444.73
and, the player would be
= $444.73 - $80
= $364.73
